Partners & Supporters

As a student-run interest group, RMIG works with several organizations with a focus on rural health. Without their financial and educational support, rural medicine would be significantly less prominent at the 91ÒùĸÊÓƵ. It is with their assistance that we are able to promote this dynamic aspect of medical education.
